Senior Commercial Manager – Strategic, Insightful & Values-Led
Are you a commercially sharp thinker with a contractual edge, but passion for creating meaningful, win-win outcomes? Do you thrive on translating complex information into strategic insight that drives performance? Join us in a leadership role where your expertise will directly influence the direction of our construction business.
About The Role
As Senior Commercial Manager, you will report directly to the Head of Construction and play a pivotal role in shaping our business strategy. You'll be the bridge between deep commercial and contractual understanding and practical business outcomes - empowering our leadership team with insights, risks, trends, and forward-thinking scenario modelling.
While construction experience is welcome, it's not essential. What matters most is a strong commercial and contractual mindset, a values-driven and care based approach, and the ability to lead with influence, detail, and purpose.
Key Responsibilities
* Lead commercial strategy and oversight across the construction portfolio.
* Provide critical data-driven insights, trend analysis, and "what-if" modelling to inform leadership decisions and long-term strategy.
* Identify and elevate margin risks, cost trends, and contractual issues - offering actionable recommendations.
* Drive commercial discipline and financial performance through close partnership with Operations Leaders and Commercial Managers.
* Surface and mitigate legal and contractual risks on live projects before they escalate.
* Implement productivity measures that increase efficiency, reduce waste, and support project success.
* Shape tools, systems, and processes that are intuitive and insightful - not complex.
* Champion a performance-driven culture that understands how value is created and money moves through the business.
* Maintain close, trusted relationships across teams - because while we value insight and strategy, our people and partnerships are at the heart of everything we do.
* Use commercial understanding to identify surface areas of opportunity across the business, and connect construction leaders to these areas of opportunity.
About You
* You bring sharp commercial acumen and a sound understanding of legal/contractual principles in a business context.
* You're a strategic thinker who also loves to get into the details.
* You know how to engage people and build trust, even when navigating complexity or challenge.
* You're a values-led, collaborative, and energised by turning insight into impact.
If you're ready to use your skills to influence meaningful outcomes - and be part of a values-driven business where relationships matter - then we'd love to hear from you.
